Benefits of booking a Disneyland Resort Hotel
Share on PinterestShare on FacebookEmail

There are a lot of benefits to booking a room and staying on property at any of the three Disneyland Resort properties. Some people take a look at the cost and don’t think it’s worth it. But I’ve complied a list of perks and reasons why you should consider this option. Staying on property adds to the magic of a Disneyland trip for sure!  Plus the Early Entry, extra 30 minutes in the park before other guests, is back starting August 8, 2022.

This post contains affiliate links which mean I make a little something when you purchase through the link with no extra cost to you. 

Benefits of Booking a Disneyland Resort Hotel

There are three different Disneyland Resort Hotels, all with lots of exclusive benefits. See what I love about the Resort Hotels and why they’re worth it. Plus, you can always save $10 using code DTG10 when you book your theme park tickets and hotel with Get Away Today.

Benefits of Booking a Disneyland Resort Hotel – Paradise Pier Hotel

Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel is located behind Disney California Adventure Park with potential views of the newly imagined Pixar Pier. This family-friendly hotel is so conveniently-located to the Disneyland Resort you’ll wonder why you ever considered staying anywhere else.

Enjoy casual, 1920’s beachy decor when booking at Paradise Pier Hotel. Disney announced recently they are changing this resort to a Pixar themed resort.  More to come about that update!  Each day of your stay at a Resort Hotel, beginning Aug. 8, 2022, Disneyland Resort Hotel guests will be able to enjoy Early Entry.  Enjoy 30 minutes before the parks open to the general public, you’ll be able to walk right into either Disneyland or Disney California Adventure Park with valid theme park admission and your hotel room key.  It’s a great way to get a jump on all the magic.  See more details below on what’s open during this morning time!

Another benefit to booking at the Paradise Pier Hotel is the new private access into Disney California Adventure Park.  To access it, cross the crosswalk and look for the signs for only hotel guests as seen below.

You end up inside Paradise Garden Parks area near Corn Dog Castle inside Disney California Adventure.  Benefits of booking a Disneyland Resort Hotel also include top-notch Disney customer service, Character wake-up calls, hidden Mickeys in the decor and themed pools. Paradise Pier features a rooftop pool with waterslides and potential views of World of Color in Disney California Adventure Park.

Benefits of Booking a Disneyland Resort Hotel – Disneyland Hotel

The Disneyland Hotel is just up the street from Paradise Pier Hotel, just west of Disneyland Park. From this hotel, select rooms may offer views of the Critter Country area of the Park, as well as fireworks.  Enjoy easy access of the monorail to go back and forth from Disneyland.

Disneyland Hotel is decked out with vintage Disney decor, including a light-up map in the lobby. You’ll see rides and attractions from Disney’s past, with fun light-up elements that bring the magic to life. As a Disneyland Hotel guest, you’ll have and extra 30 minutes, Early Entry to the parks with your room key and valid theme park admission. You’ll love being in the Parks before general admission, giving you the chance to enjoy popular rides with shorter wait times. Select rides are open during Early Entry, see list at the bottom of this post.

Character Dining options at Disneyland Hotel include Goofy’s Kitchen, which offers breakfast and dinner. The buffet has a wide variety of options, and it’s always a blast to meet the Characters right at your table.

Just like Paradise Pier, this Disneyland Resort Hotel offers guest perks such as Character wake-up calls, themed rooms and easy access to the Parks. Plus, Disneyland Hotel beds feature magical headboards that light up and play music with the touch of a button. It’s all those little touches that make your vacation extra special. Disneyland Hotel boasts some of the best pools as well, with a Monorail slide and kid-friendly splash areas.

Benefits of Booking a Disneyland Resort Hotel – Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa

Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa is actually located inside Disney California Adventure Park. It has its own exclusive entrance into the Disney California Adventure Park, as well as an entrance to Downtown Disney.

The theming at Disney’s Grand Californian is woodsy, with a nod to California’s rich craftsman history. You’ll find Chip and Dale throughout the hotel, which is surrounded by towering pines. Using your Early Entry perk has never been easier at the Grand since you walk out of the hotel lobby to your own private entrance into Disney California Adventure Park! You won’t waste any time getting to and from the parks to your room for a quick break during the day.

If you’d like to meet Disney Characters during your stay, be sure to reserve your spot at Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures in Napa Rose restaurant. Guests of all ages will love to see Disney Princesses up close and have a chance for photos and autographs.  I love the Storytellers Cafe character experience at breakfast time.  You’ll see Mickey, Minnie, Chip, Dale and Pluto dressed up in Safari outfits.  The breakfast buffet is amazing.

Benefits of booking a Disneyland Resort Hotel include the beautiful grounds, and you’ll feel like you’re in the Redwoods when you visit the Grand’s pool and leisure areas. You can request Character wake-up calls at the Grand as well, and enjoy the inviting lobby with live piano music and fireplace seating area. Each hotel has activities like… Learn to draw Disney characters, or learn to play the ukulele and hula dance! Visit the Guest Services Desk located in each hotel lobby during your stay for a complete schedule of current activities and locations.

Benefits of Booking a Disneyland Resort Hotel –  Early Entry details

About Shantelle

Hello and welcome to my page where I share tips, information, strategies, news, events and more mainly about the Disneyland Resort. Growing up my grandparents owned a travel agency. I watched my grandmother plan and lead tours all over the world. Between her and my mother, I learned the importance of planning before you go on a trip to make the most out of your time. While my main focus is Disneyland you’ll find info about other Disney parks and Disney cruises too!
If you’re overwhelmed or need help planning your trip I offer customized touring plans.
